BCCI will celebrate Virat Kohli

According to media reports, BCCI may call a meeting soon, in which it is possible to consider Virat Kohli not to take retirement from Test cricket. If Virat is not part of the team, then the Indian team’s middle order in the series against England will be very lacking in experience.
